    • Peña Oyarzún, Daniel; San Martin, Carla; Hernández Cáceres, María Paz; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Morselli, Eugenia; Budini Budini, Mauricio Fernando; Burgos, Patricia V.; Criollo Céspedes, Alfredo Guillermo (Frontiers Media, 2022)
      Autophagy is an intracellular degradation mechanism that allows recycling of organelles and macromolecules. Autophagic function increases metabolite availability modulating metabolic pathways, differentiation and cell ...
    • Contreras Briceño, Felipe Andrés; Herrera, Sebastián; Vega Adauy, Julián; Salinas, Manuel; Ocaranza, María Paz; Jalil, Jorge E.; Mandiola, Jorge; Garcia Nannig, Lorena del Pilar; Chiong Lay, Mario Martin; Castro, Pablo F.; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Gabrielli, Luigi (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      An increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been demonstrated in high-performance athletes. Soluble vascular adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), a biomarker involved in inflammation and cardiac remodeling, is associated ...
    • Luo, Yuxuan; Jiang, Nan; May, Herman I.; Luo, Xiang; Ferdous, Anwerul; Schiattarella, Gabriele G.; Chen, Guihao; Li, Qinfeng; Li, Chao; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Jiang, Dingsheng; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Gillette, Thomas G.; Hill, Joseph A. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2021)
      Background: Cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk factor for heart failure, a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. The calcineurin/NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells) pathway and the MAPK ...
    • Zúñiga Cuevas, Úrsula Almendra (Universidad de Chile, 2022)
      Antecedentes: El envejecimiento y la inflamación crónica de bajo grado son factores de riesgo para el desarrollo de enfermedades cardiovasculares. También se conoce que la inflamación vascular crónica promueve la disfunción ...
    • López Crisosto, Camila Paz; Díaz Vegas, Alexis; Castro, Pablo F.; Rothermel, Beverly A.; Bravo Sagua, Roberto Francisco; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro (SpringerNature, 2021)
      Subcellular organelles communicate with each other to regulate function and coordinate responses to changing cellular conditions. The physical-functional coupling of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with mitochondria allows ...
    • Flores León, Yvo (Universidad de Chile, 2023)
      Angiotensina-(1-9) [Ang-(1-9)] es un nonapéptido derivado del sistema renina-angiotensina no canónico cuyo efecto cardioprotector está mediado a través de su unión al receptor de angiotensina subtipo 2 (AT2R) y su posterior ...
    • López Gallardo, Erik Alexander (Universidad de Chile, 2023)
      Introducción. La insulina regula la dinámica y función mitocondrial mediante la vía de Akt, generando un fenotipo mitocondrial elongado y estimulando el metabolismo oxidativo mitocondrial en células musculares. MUL1, una ...
    • Muñoz Córdova, Felipe Andrés (Universidad de Chile, 2023)
      La fenretinida, un derivado retinoide sintético clínicamente seguro, posee efectos quimioterápicos y quimiopreventivos con mínimos efectos adversos. Estudios preclínicos han mostrado que este fármaco podría tener un segundo ...
    • Díaz, Paula; Sandoval Bórquez, Alejandra María Loreto; Bravo Sagua, Roberto Francisco; Quest, Andrew Frederick Geoffery; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      In recent decades, compelling evidence has emerged showing that organelles are not static structures but rather form a highly dynamic cellular network and exchange information through membrane contact sites. Although ...
    • Mondaca Ruff, David Gonzalo; Quiroga, Clara; Norambuena Soto, Ignacio Estebán; Riquelme Meléndez, Jaime Andrés; San Martin, Alejandra; Bustamante Parraguez, Mario Andrés; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Chiong Lay, Mario Martín (Wiley, 2022)
      Hypertension is associated with high circulating angiotensin II (Ang II). We have reported that autophagy regulates Ang II-induced vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) hypertrophy, but the mechanism mediating this effect is ...
    • Troncoso Magñin, Mayarling Francisca; Pavez Giani, Mario Gustavo; Wilson Rodríguez, Carlos Antonio; Lagos Cerón, Daniel Alejandro; Durán Gárate, Javier Andre; Ramos, Sebastián; Barrientos Briones, Genaro Christian; Silva, Patricio; Llanos Vidal, Paola Andrea; Basualto Alarcón, Carla Edith; Westenbrink, B. Daan; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Estrada Hormazábal, Manuel Iván (BMC, 2021)
      Background Testosterone regulates nutrient and energy balance to maintain protein synthesis and metabolism in cardiomyocytes, but supraphysiological concentrations induce cardiac hypertrophy. Previously, we determined that ...
    • Schiattarella, Gabriele G.; Altamirano, Francisco; Young Kim, Soo; Tong, Dan; Ferdous, Anwarul; Piristine, Hande; Dasgupta, Subhajit; Wang, Xuliang; French, Kristin M.; Villalobos, Elisa; Spurgin, Stephen B.; Waldman, Maayan; Jiang, Nan; May, Herman I.; Hill, Theodore M.; Luo, Yuxuan; Yoo, Heesoo; Zaha, Vlad G.; Lavandero González, Sergio Alejandro; Gillette, Thomas G.; Hill, Joseph A. (Nature, 2021)
      Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is now the dominant form of heart failure and one for which no efficacious therapies exist. Obesity and lipid mishandling greatly contribute to HFpEF. However, molecular ...
